[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Park Woo-ryang, the mayor of Sinan County, joined the "Cool/Hot Water Dispenser OFF, Environment ON Challenge," an energy-saving practice campaign in daily life, after being nominated by Kim Sang-ho, the mayor of Hanam City.

According to Sinan County on the 16th, the energy-saving practice challenge in daily life started on September 7th by Yang Seung-jo, governor of Chungnam Province, aiming to promote nationwide energy-saving practices in everyday life.

The main activity goals include using electronic timer outlets, cutting standby power of cool/hot water dispensers, and prioritizing the purchase of energy-efficient grade 1 products to reduce power consumption and carbon emissions.

Mayor Park Woo-ryang participated in the challenge by posting a photo on SNS holding a tablet PC with the phrase "Carbon Neutrality Practiced Together, Cool/Hot Water Dispenser OFF, Environment ON" written on it, to minimize waste output.

Mayor Park said, "Sinan County is actively promoting solar power and offshore wind power to realize carbon neutrality and respond to the climate crisis, and is focusing on the development and distribution of renewable energy, including the implementation of a profit-sharing system for renewable energy development." He added, "I hope this challenge becomes an opportunity to collectively address environmental issues through individual energy-saving practices and further contribute to carbon neutrality."

Meanwhile, Mayor Park Woo-ryang nominated Kim Hyuk-sung, chairman of Sinan County Council, Kim Gil-dong, president of Sinan County Fisheries Cooperative, and Park Il-yong, president of Sinan County Forestry Cooperative, as the next participants in the challenge.
